Tips for Better Macro / Close-up Prompts
Combine Macro / Close-up with a specific AI tool's strengths — Midjourney for atmosphere, DALL·E for literal accuracy, Stable Diffusion for fine control.
Layer in lighting details like "soft diffused light" or "dramatic side light" to give Macro / Close-up prompts more depth and realism.
Add composition cues — camera angle, framing, and background — to keep Macro / Close-up results consistent across a shoot or series.
Be specific about subject details (age, pose, expression) to avoid the AI defaulting to generic Macro / Close-up imagery.
